Not long ago I saw a quilt with a disappearing ninepatch which Sue Anne made and she explained to me how to make one. I liked working on it and it is already finished! I am very happy with it. It was also the first quilt i put in the dryer and it worked out well.

Eerst maakte ik nine patches en daarna sneed ik ze in vieren.The first step was to make nine patches and then cut them all up in 4 pieces.

Daarna kan je ze op allerlei manieren weer aan elkaar naaien.Wel heb ik steeds het middelste blokje donker gemaakt.Hier is het quiltje klaar!
After cutting up you can sew them up together the way you want it. I used a dark fabric for the centerpiece of the nine patch. And here you see my finished quilt in the garden!

Last week I did these thimble berries blocks. They are month 6 and 7 of last year so I'm behind but it will be finished sometime.I did some applique and explained the ladies of my quiltbee how to make 'klosjes' on the machine. I did not make time for new 'klosjes' because of all this.

This afternoon I walked my dogs and saw a bird I never saw before, here, I did see it in a book and probably in the zoo. I got my camera but the bird was still a little bit far away. It was a spoonbill. He was white with black paws and beak. The end of it looks like a spoon. I was very excited to see such a bird close by.
